Last Rites From the Track to the Scrapyard【電子書籍】[ John Evans ]
価格:1833円
<p>Steam's final fling proved a melancholy experience for the many enthusiasts who had witnessed the gleaming giants of the rails in their prime. One day's highly burnished rail tour favourite was the next day's candidate for the breaker's torch. This book takes a look at those latter days of steam, with an unashamedly nostalgic approach. As the modernisation plan gathered force in the mid-1960s, British Railways simply could not cope with a rejected army of steam engines that would previously have met their end discreetly at their own workshops, so a myriad of scrapyards sprang up to deal with Britain's hurried race to abolish steam, while yards and locomotive sheds seemed to have as many rusting hulks as working steam engines. John Evans took his camera to some of these haunts for one last look at some old friends, caught in their final hours. The sheds and yards he visited, like steam itself, are already part of history, but here you can visit them with him one last time. Sadly, almost none of the engines he pictured escaped the cutter's torch, so these are precious memories, published for the first time.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。・・・楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

Throwing-sticks in the National Museum Unveiling the Cultural Significance of Ancient Throwing-Sticks【電子書籍】[ Otis Tufton Mason ](3)
価格150円
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Throwing-sticks in the National Museum," Otis Tufton Mason meticulously examines the often-overlooked category of throwing-sticks'??tools of great significance in the lifeways of various cultures. This work is emblematic of Mason's scholarly approach, combining ethnographic detail with a rigorous analysis of material culture. As part of the Museum's broader collection, Mason contextualizes these objects within the tapestry of prehistoric and contemporary uses, exposing their multifunctional roles in hunting, sport, and ceremonial practices. His adept use of descriptive language and illustration enriches the reader's understanding of both the artifacts and the societies that crafted them, making this work a vital reference in the field of anthropology and museology. Otis Tufton Mason, an eminent American anthropologist and curator, was deeply influenced by his background in both natural history and fieldwork. His extensive research among Indigenous peoples of North America allowed him to appreciate the nuances of tool-making and usage practices firsthand. Mason's scholarly endeavors were fueled by a desire to document and safeguard cultural heritage, a mission that resonates throughout this publication. I highly recommend "Throwing-sticks in the National Museum" for scholars, students, and enthusiasts of anthropology and history. Mason's thorough investigation not only enlightens the reader on the technicalities of throwing-sticks but also opens a window into the rich cultural narratives they embody, making it an indispensable addition to any collection.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
The Prisoners of Perote【電子書籍】[ William Preston Stapp ](3)
価格3224円
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
In late 1842, Private William Preston Stapp and about three hundred other citizens of the Republic of Texas took it upon themselves to invade Mexico. They intended to retaliate for a recent Mexican attack on San Antonio and to humiliate President Sam Houston, who had been hesitant to seek revenge. Stapp provides a closely observed, day-by-day narrative of the disastrous adventure later known as the Mier expedition. While his style might be described as "elegantly restrained" in comparison to the literary excesses of that early Victorian age, Stapp's flair for drama and description makes for colorful reading. In response to the public outrage prompted by the San Antonio incident, Houston issued a presidential proclamation inviting volunteers for a retaliatory expedition across the Rio Grande. After the bloodless "capture" and pillage of two Mexican border towns, he called the volunteers back home. Most were relieved to comply, but some felt compelled to pursue the honor of the Republic further, and the Mier expedition was launched on December 20, 1842. On the day after Christmas, all save a forty-man camp guard were captured outside of Mier, a few miles across the Mexican border. The prisoners faced a brutal forced march to Mexico City. Stapp was one of a large group that escaped along the way, became lost in the mountains, and suffered badly from hunger and thirst before recapture. He survived the notorious Black Bean Episode in which 17 of the 176 returned escapees were shot after drawing black beans in a lottery. The Texans were delivered to Perote Prison near Mexico City in September 1843, where a few of them tunneled to freedom and many more died in captivity. Mexico released the last of the prisoners in 1844, and Stapp was among them. First published in 1845 and later issued in pamphlet form in 1933 by the La Grange Journal, The Prisoners of Perote is a fascinating view of a painful episode in Texas history. The foreword by Joe B. Frantz provides a perspective on the Texas-Mexico relations during this period "when both countries were shaking down and had not yet found their way." He points out that The Prisoners of Perote provides some clues to the reasons behind the inherent tenseness that exists between Texas and Mexico today.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Waterloo 1815: Captain Mercer's Journal【電子書籍】[ Bob Carruthers ](3)
価格1120円
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>More has probably been written about the Waterloo campaign than almost any other in history. It was the climax of the Napoleonic Wars and forms a watershed in both European and world history. However, the lethal combination of national bias, wilful distortion and simple error has unfortunately led to the constantly regurgitated traditional 'accepted' version being significantly wrong regarding many episodes in the campaign. Oft-repeated claims have morphed into established fact and, with the bicentenary of this famous battle soon to be commemorated, it is high time that these are challenged and finally dismissed.Gareth Glover has spent a decade uncovering hundreds of previously unpublished eyewitness accounts of the battle and campaign, which have highlighted many of these myths and errors. In this ground-breaking history, based on extensive primary research of all the nations involved, he provides a very readable and beautifully balanced account of the entire campaign while challenging these distorted claims and myths, and he provides clear evidence to back his version of events. His thoughtful reassessment of this decisive episode in world history will be stimulating reading for those already familiar with the Napoleonic period and it will form a fascinating introduction for readers who are discovering this extraordinary event for the first time.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

価格1800円
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Al igual que la mayor?a de los chilenos, nos reunimos a conversar sobre el proceso pol?tico y social que comenz? el 25 de octubre de 2020, d?a en que se sent? la primera piedra para un posible pacto social a trav?s de una nueva Constituci?n que debemos escribir entre todos. En los d?as que corren ha pasado a ser un lugar com?n decir que la elecci?n de la convenci?n constitucional es "la madre de todas las batallas". En realidad, la convenci?n constitucional debiera ser "la madre de todas las conversaciones" y la nueva constituci?n que logremos, "la madre de todos los acuerdos". Porque se trata de c?mo queremos organizarnos para seguir viviendo juntos y no de ver qui?n dispara m?s o mejor contra la trinchera opuesta. Es el momento de encontrar las coincidencias m?s amplias en torno a principios fundantes para una convivencia respetuosa y l?neas directrices para la organizaci?n del Estado, que nos permitan transitar a todos ーcoincidentes, afines, distantes y opuestosー por un camino en el que seguiremos andando y viviendo juntos. El camino ancho. Este libro es el registro de una conversaci?n entre dos personas sobre algunos de los temas que se debatir?n en la convenci?n, dialogando sobre puntos ineludibles a la hora de establecer nuevas bases pol?ticas para los ciudadanos. Fruto del di?logo surgen orientaciones que pudieran reunir consenso entre una mayor?a muy amplia de personas en Chile, extendiendo as? una invitaci?n a todos y todas a participar en la m?s amplia conversaci?n que nos debemos, proponiendo puntos de vista a quienes elijamos como representantes convencionales.

Living Springs Refreshing the Soul【電子書籍】[ Jonathan Y. Martey ](3)
価格1031円
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Once upon a time, the Lord Jesus stood by the well of Jacob in Samaria when a woman who had come to fetch water engaged Him in a conversation, as recorded in the Gospel according to Saint John, chapter four. This thirsty Samaritan woman had come to get natural water, but Jesus ended up offering her living water. The Samaritan woman said to Jesus, Sir, give me this water so that I wont get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.</p> <p>The chapters of Living Springs: Refreshing the Soul have been drawn from deep wells of inspiration through prayer, worship, and the study of the Word of God. The chapters of Living Springs: Refreshing the Soul as well the contents of the chapters, centre on everyday issues of life. Each chapter ends with a prayer and suggested Scripture quotations for further meditation. But I believe that the Holy Spirit will breathe upon souls each time the pages of Living Springs: Refreshing the Soul are opened and read.</p> <p>I trust that each chapter of Living Springs: Refreshing the Soul will indeed reflect what the Lord said to the Samaritan woman: Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life (John 4:1314 NIV).</p> <p>The devotional pieces contained in Living Springs Refreshing the Soul are great sources of inspiration.. I recommend it.</p> <p>-Rev Dr. Philip Laryea</p> <p>I am confident Living Springs Refreshing the Soul is a Spirit-filled volume that will transform your life from glory to glory and I recommend it wholly.</p> <p>-Rev Nii Clottey Odonkor</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
